PANS. Aug. 2.-The seconds of ex Pre-
mier Ferry and those of Gen. Boulangel
have decided that duel is necessary.
Gen. Boulangers seconds publish re
port of what they say transpired at the con
ference between them and the seconds OF
NJ Ferry. This report Is in substance as
follows: Gen. Boulang9r desired serious
repartion proportional to the grarity OF Nj.
Ferrys affront On this account he pro
posed that the cOmbatants exchange shots
until one was hit; choice of distance be left
to the seconds of NJ Ferry. These cond1
tons not being accepted, Gen. Boulanger's
seconds agreed TO be content with an eX
change of shots between the principals at
twenty PAGES without any word OF com
mand.
Considering this proposal to embody the
extreme limit of Gen. Boulangers former
instructions his seconds did not feel author
lied to make any further proposition. NJ.
Ferry s seconds would only accept duel at
-25 PAGES with single exchange OF shots,
fire to be opened at the word of command.
Thereupon as the offended party he has the
right to dictate the conditions of the duel
without being obliged to submit to terms
dictated by his adversary's seconds, Gen.
Boulangers seconds withdrew from the
affair.

LONDON, Aug. An the house of com
mons this evening Mr. Dillon com
planned of a statement that appeared
In a provincial paper which he suspected
was supplied by a Conservative member,
charging him in recent debate with laugh
ing In approval of the stoning of daughter
of the agent of Lord Sligo during school
procession in Belfast. Mr. Dillon said he
made it rule not to notice. newspaper as
sertions. but this offensive and disgusting
passage was too much for him. (Conser
vative cries of it is true).
Mr.. Dillon-WhO says it is true? 1t is
absolutely false
Mr.. Halsey-I say it is true; distinctly
remember the occurrence. Mr.. Maclean,
Of Oldham, | heard it too.
Mr.. Webster-So did l.
Mr.. Price-And |, also.
Q Mr.. Dillon-I say it is false against the
four of you, (cries Of order and Home Rule
cheers
1t is part of system of infamous and
atrocious falsehoods by which an attempt
is being made to hunt the Irish members
out of public life. Home Rule cheers
ItThe speaker-Order; youimust not make
such charges against members.
Mr.. Dillon-I nave reason to suppose
that the offensive passage was supplied by
a member. No more atricious accusation
could be made. Other members shout
that it is true.) Are Irish members to have
any protection here? L have heard the
speaker call members to order for language
which beside this sinks into insigniflcance.
The speaker am the Judge of order
no hot 10
cusati0n is true put their own version upon
what passed during the matter referred to.
Mr. Mclean, amid an uproar maintain
ed that when the assault upon the girl,
laughter was heard among the Parnellites
and the Conservative members Indignantly
cried shame. The fact would be found
mentioned in the records. He asked Dill
Ion if ne repudiated.
Mr. Dillon-If you resent what occurred
| ask justice at the speakers hand. The
accusation ought to be withdrawn. If
charges of this character are allowed to be
hurled against us there will be an end to
all public Gecency and order in parliament
The speaker-The laughter which men,
bers declare they heard was meant to be
interpreted in an offensive sense. If Mr..
Dillon repudiates the statement the house
can accept the reputation.
Mr. Dillon insisted that this was insult
ficient. He demanded the protection of
the chair in the withdrawal of the charges,
or that the speaker require the members to
withdraw
The speaker-Order; have settled the
incident
Mr.. Dillon-Then these measures of
Justice are for one set of members and
there is no Justice for another set (Home
Rule cheers.
Debate on the land bill was resumed.
The immense increase in the GladstOn-
ian vote has caused a panic among the
Unionists When the result of the cleo
ton of Sir George Trevelyan from Glasgow
became known in the house members de-
serted the benches and tlocked to the lob
bies where they earnestly discussed the po-
litical outlook. The Home Rulers were
jubilaut. The Ministerialists admit that
modification of governments Irish policy
is probable under this con-
elusive proof of the spread
of Gladsonianism. The section of the
Conservative party which was pressing the
cabinet to proclaim the National League
was on the verge of success, but IL is
thought the efforts of the Conservatives
will now be Intellectual, and that all efforts
of the government toward coercion will be
relaxed.
Sir George Trevelyan, in a speech this
evening, said that his victory made it next
to impossible for the government to pro
claim the Irish National League. The cleo
ton, he declared, largely settled the Irish
question. Henceforth Ireland must be
treated in the spirit of Cancellation, kind
ness and confidence.
The government has decided to subsidiZe
